VLANs are usually connected to a LAN interface on the device. Therefore, all packets that pass through this interface receive the same VLAN ID when the VLAN module is enabled. However, in some cases, administrators will want to assign different WLAN users to different VLANs.
LANconfig:
Command line:
The client-specific VLAN ID accepts values from 0 to 4094. The default value of 0 stands for an unspecified VLAN ID. In such a case, the client will be assigned to the VLAN port of the logical WLAN.
The following requirements must be met in order to ensure successful client-specific VLAN assignment:
- VLAN operation must be enabled.
- The VLAN IDs that are to be assigned to the individual clients must be included in the VLAN network table.
- The LAN interfaces and all WLAN interfaces that are used by the clients must be assigned to the corresponding VLAN.
